Starting Location: Winter Springs Civic Center, 400 North Edgemon Avenue, Winter Springs, FL 32708

Planned Activity: We will hold a Fox Hunt with the goal being to find the transmitter in the shortest amount of time. We will start from the LMARS meeting location, the Winter Springs Civic Center, and the hiding spot will be one of the local parks within a 7 mile radius of the starting point. For safety and fellowship reasons we will hunt in teams of two. Call a friend in the club and have them partner with you, If you don't have a partner we can team you up before we start. Just show up. After we are done we will have a cookout for the participants.

Talk-in for the event is on the LMARS 147.285 MHz repeater.
